CHAPTER SEVEN

TWO DAYS LATER, Quinn stretched out on the five-star comfort of a queen bed and let out a low satisfied groan. She, the boys and Aidan had spent the majority of the day at the aquatic park. The boys had had a blast on the water slides. So had Aidan.

And so had she, though she didn’t doubt for a single moment that she deserved a mid-afternoon rest. Somehow she’d managed to keep her hands to herself and her mind mostly on the boys rather than with fantasies filled with Aidan, which was no small feat considering he’d been parading around in his board shorts for most of the day.

Robbie abandoned his Gameboy to climb up onto the bed beside her. The door to the boys’ adjoining twin room stood wide open. Rather than watch television in their own room, however, they’d chosen to settle in her room to play their Gameboys.

‘It’s been the funnest day,’ he said, nestling in beside her.

‘It has, hasn’t it?’

‘Is there a water park in Pokolbin?’

She shook her head and watched carefully to see if his face fell. It did a bit.

Chase climbed up onto the bed too. ‘I love holidays! What are we going to do tomorrow?’

She opened her free arm so he could snuggle in against her too. ‘Well, now, if you two let me have a sleep-in, maybe we could see our way to visiting the zoo.’

Both boys started to bounce.

A knock sounded on the door. Before she could move, a voice on the other side called out, ‘It’s Aidan.’

‘Come on in,’ she called back. Reclining on her bed probably wasn’t the best place to receive visitors—especially one as alluring as Aidan—but she did have the safeguard of two young boys tucked in at her sides and they’d banish anything loaded from the situation.

When he saw them, Aidan’s grin hooked up one side of his mouth. ‘That rest you said you were going to take...’ He glanced at the bouncing, wide-awake boys. ‘It looks...uh...successful.’

She forced her eyes wide. ‘Oh, yes.’

They both laughed.

Chase launched himself off the bed and across to Aidan. ‘Mum said we might go to the zoo tomorrow.’

Aidan lounged in the doorway, all hot, relaxed male, and it made her stomach tighten and her breath shorten.

‘But only if we let her have a sleep-in first.’ Robbie joined them in the doorway.

‘That sounds like a fair exchange.’ Aidan glanced at her and she suddenly realised she was alone, adrift on this enormous bed. He sucked his bottom lip into his mouth and his eyes darkened.

She hitched herself up higher against the headboard and made sure her dress covered her legs to below her knees. She avoided direct eye contact, but couldn’t stop herself from looking in his direction. He bent down to whisper something to the boys. They glanced at her with barely contained excitement and raced off to their room.

And then Quinn found herself alone in all of this five-star luxury with Aidan, and she couldn’t move a muscle. It took all of her strength to wrestle the fantasies rising through her to the ground.
